Each day -- each challenge....but thanks!

Sanity is a relative term, but healing from any major injury is as much mental as it is physical. Three cheers for toughing it out! Keep up the good work.

And you know I can't resist those entendres, so I have to say there's way more fun to be had than just laying on your back.

 

glad to hear there is slow improvement chris. i've often wondered what i would do with myself if i were laid up.
i guess i can stop wondering.

all the best!

 

Glad you're improving, Kris. There's nothing that gets your attention like excruciating pain said they guy with a titanium plate and 9 screws run all the way through his arm bone. I can identify somewhat. Thankfully, my pain didn't last as long as yours and I hope yours eases off soon. We're all pulling for ya!

 

You'd actually quote posts and use the shift key?

 

You just gave me a flashback to helping my dad install a new ROM in his Apple II so it could do both upper and lower case. Suddenly the shift key mattered.

@cyberpriusII hang in there! It's important to keep the rest of yourself in shape while you heal. Good to stay connected and conversant however you can manage it!

 

Having been through two total hip replacements over the course of 6 years (the second to replace the first that failed), I've endured some recovery time too. Pushing through it and working hard to overcome are the only choices in my mind. Now that I've fully recovered, Friedrich Nietzsche's phrase, "what doesn't kill you, makes you stronger" feels appropriate to quote.

Keep up the good work, and best wishes towards a full recovery.

 

I have a friend who's retired Marine Force Recon. He said that pain is just weakness leaving your body. Having been shot twice, I guess he speaks from experience.

 

Wait, that wasn't Kelly Clarkson?

 

You know we're all rooting' for ya, Kris. My only question is, did you ever find the Anchor Steam?

 

"Was mich nicht umbringt, macht mich stärker" might be a little harder to belt.

But I guess you could do it, to the same tune....

 

Hitched your wagon to a star, didn't you?

Keep yer tail feathers up, kid....
We're rootin for you!

 

I agree this feels like community. I was glad see the implication in another thread that your pregnancy ended well.

This place feels much more like family than some other forums I visit. I even feel embarrassed when I tell people to avoid the PriusChat Shop due to the bad service. It is a black eye on Danny, but also the PriusChat community s a whole, IMHO.

Please give your body a chance to heal and to not push too hard. I know chronic issues can really alter things. My wife has had chronic migraines for years (brain damage from H1N1?) and, even after visiting the Neurology head at a major university, the only treatment is to treat the symptoms.
